so he came in looking like this on purpose??really?? i think father time may have finally caught up with the legend.if he loses i just hope it is by decision and not knockout.if he wins i will jump for joy cause it will be the greatest accomplishment in boxing history

People said the exact same thing before the Tarver, Pavlik and Pascal fights.

Its become very boring reading the exact same shlt every time B-Hop fights.

As a huge Hopkins fan, I concur.

It seems everytime the guy gets ready to fight his other supposed "fans" begin posting stuff like this : He's old, he looks frail, etc... To get the excuses ready for the event of a *****ty performance. Then when he wins the same dudes are the first in line to praise him for his efforts and say they never had any doubts.

The bottom line is this : Yes, the man is old as *****. Ancient in boxing terms. But it's his right to continue fighting if that's what he still desires. So if you're a fan, support the guy and enjoy the *****in' fight. But don't be half-assed about it.

WAR Hopkins. NO excuses.

I just re-watched the Pavlik, Tarver and Pascal fights about a fortnight ago and it reminded me that people were saying he was going to get outsped and outfought and retire after said bout for years.

Bob Fitzsimmons winning the Lineal Middleweight Title, moving up to Heavyweight at less than 170 Lbs and winning the Lineal Heavyweight Title, moving back down to Light Heavyweight and winning the Lineal Light Heavyweight title.

These are just 3 that come in to the top of my head.

Hopkins defending his title at 47 is a great feat and Chad Dawson is a good fighter but it say it's the greatest feat in the history of Boxing is of course, absurd.
